ACL injuries, nd linfranc fractures have nothing to do with not being in shape. Also, Ronnie has not had recurring ankle, or shoulder, or hamstring problems. He's had fluke injuries and there is no way that you can say because he had those injuries that he will get hurt again this season.

Final point: If Miami wants to win in 2010, they keep Brown. If they get rid of him, they drop to 3rd in the division.

Couldn't disagree more. Running backs can be found anywhere in the draft. 1,000 yards isn't difficult to accomplish, and Brown has done it one time. He's injury prone, whether you want to admit it or not.

I don't want to pay a 29 year old running back with an old knee injury (a serious one no less) and an old foot injury (also a serious one).

In the 8 games that Ricky played without Ronnie he averaged almost 90 yards a game. He banged up his shoulder I believe in the Texans game and was still banged up going into the last game of the year against Pittsburgh.

Ricky can't carry the load at 33 years old, but I still like having Ricky around because for 4-5 games, he still can get the job done.

Phins, I know you love Ronnie, but the injury factor is hard to overlook and cannot be ignored.
